Daily luck will affect the chance to obtain a Golden Animal Cracker from some of these sources, indicated by an "≈".
Use
Once given to any animal (besides pigs), this item will make that animal produce double the output of its normal product. Pigs cannot receive this buff. It can also be thrown into a Fish Pond, having the same effect as giving it to a farm animal. The basket holding the fish pond's produce will turn gold, and an icon of the cracker will appear in the fish pond's menu when brought up.
The Golden Animal Cracker cannot be used on animals or a Fish Pond more than once. When an animal's information screen is displayed, the upper right corner contains a Golden Animal Cracker icon to indicate that it has been previously used.
If an animal is sold or a Fish Pond is emptied with the “empty pond” option, if a Golden Animal Cracker was used on it it will permanently disappear. (Emptying a fish pond without clicking the "empty pond" option will not make the Golden Animal Cracker disappear, but it will not be possible to put a different fish species in the pond).
